Rant Show: I Angrily Criticized a Million Parents

Chapter 511 The Simple and Honest People of Gotham City

Just then, the short employee Gary burst in and shouted at Arthur, "Arthur! Boss Huo wants you in his office!"

Just then, Randall said to Gary with a mocking tone, "Gary! You know what I'm curious about?"

"do not know?"

"You guys call this playing golf! You're just playing mini-golf!"

"Beat his little butt! Gary!"

Randall made a joke about the short guy, which caused a burst of laughter in the locker room.

Arthur stopped smiling, quickly put on his clothes, and then left laughing, his exaggerated expression almost deliberate.

But when he turned the corner, away from everyone's gaze.

The smile on his face vanished instantly, replaced by an unusually cold expression.

Arthur entered his boss's office and greeted him politely, "Hello, Mr. Huo. Gary said you wanted to see me?"

The boss turned his head without even looking at him and asked bluntly, "Is your comedy career progressing? Has anyone remembered your jokes?"

“Not yet, I’m incubating a new joke,” Arthur answered frankly, trying to take the seat across from his boss’s desk.

The boss interrupted him, "Don't sit down, I don't have much time."

"Listen, I admire you, Arthur!"

"Although some people laugh at you for being strange, I like you very much, but I can't say why."

"However, I received a complaint that really upset me! Kenny Music Store claims you've mysteriously disappeared and the billboard hasn't been returned!"

"Because I was robbed? Don't you know about this?" Arthur explained helplessly.

"Who would steal the billboard? You're talking nonsense!" The boss was clearly suspicious and barely contained his anger.

"You must return it, or they will go bankrupt, Arthur!"

“Why would I need their advertising cards?” Arthur tried to explain.

However, the boss did not believe him and would not allow him to explain.

Why should I know? What exactly is going on?

The boss demanded that Arthur return the billboard to the music store, or he would have his salary docked!

Meanwhile, the boss complained that Arthur's performance wasn't funny and that he would be fired if it continued!
Feeling helpless, Arthur could only vent his emotions in the garbage dump! It was yet another frustrating day!
……

"Do you understand? I meant well! I wanted to help you!"

"There's one more thing! The people around you feel awkward! They think you're weird! I can't stand it!"

Arthur did not respond to his boss, but instead smiled and listened as his boss talked more and more, his smile gradually widening.

But his eyes revealed his emotional breakdown and resentment.

After finishing his work, Arthur went alone to a deserted, abandoned junkyard, which stood in stark contrast to the towering Ferris wheel of the amusement park behind him.

However, the place was dark and damp, and filled with a nauseating stench.

He made no attempt to hide his emotions, resorting to kicking trash cans to vent his frustrations, eventually collapsing in the garbage heap.

However, for his mother's sake, and for survival, he had to be strong! In the dim twilight, he stepped onto the stairs leading home...

As usual, he arrived home and checked the mailbox first, only to find it empty to his disappointment.

As I slowly stepped into the elevator, my neighbor Sophie appeared just as the doors were about to close.

"Wait! Slow down! Don't close the door!" Sophie shouted anxiously, carrying a lot of things and her daughter into the elevator.

Sophie leaned against the corner, her daughter silently observing Arthur, before speaking:
"This building is absolutely awful! Isn't it?"

“This building is awful, Mom, isn’t it?” the daughter chimed in. “Yes! We all know, darling!” Sophie looked at Arthur, her eyes gleaming, and gestured with her hand as if pointing a gun at her head.

His daughter was still shouting happily, still at the age of childlike innocence.

"This is terrible, Mom!"

"What's wrong, honey?"

With her daughter by her side, Sophie stepped out of the elevator, leaving behind a "Goodnight" before departing.
The daughter kept repeating the same sentence, "This building is really awful, isn't it, Mommy?"

Arthur walked out slowly and suddenly discovered that Sophie lived on the same floor; they were neighbors.

Arthur stared at Sophie silently for a moment, then silently turned and went home.

When Arthur got home, he wanted to give his mother a shower, talking to her as he showered.

"Maybe the postman lost them! Mom! Why are these letters so important?"

What do you think he will do?

He will lend a helping hand!

"You were just his colleague 30 years ago!"

With her hair still wet, the mother looked at Arthur and said, "Why did he lend a hand? Because Thomas Wayne is a kind man! If he knew our hardships and saw this situation, he would surely be heartbroken!"

This is the only explanation I can give you!

Arthur looked somber and continued, "I don't want you to worry about money, Mother!"

"Or perhaps, it's because of me!"

Just then, the director gave the order, and the scene was perfectly executed once again. As expected, the Best Actor is someone you can trust.

The director smiled, and although the crew members around him were used to it, Zhou Yang's acting skills this time still surprised them.

There's always a big surprise!

"Zhou Yang's performance was outstanding! His acting skills were superb, simply amazing!"

"He's a born actor! I keep watching it and I'm still amazed!"

"Sometimes his performance is simply amazing! I can't even describe it in words! He can convey sorrow and forbearance with just a glance!"

"Quickly, go and get Zhou Yang some water!"

"Go by yourself! Hahaha! Zhou Yang's performance is truly masterful!"

"You're exaggerating! Don't think we can't see through your flattery! It's a very loud and clear spiel!"

"I'm just praising him objectively! His abilities are truly admirable! There might be a tiny bit of flattery involved, but I only admit to a very small amount!"

"Hey! You guy!"

Listening to the crew's discussion, the director smiled and patted Zhou Yang on the shoulder.

Zhou Yang is amazing!

For the past month, everyone has been working hard to finish filming, since the entire movie revolves around the protagonist, Arthur. Unlike Marvel movies, which can afford to build multiple sound stages, this extravagant approach is not suitable for this production.

Finally, the last scene arrived, and everyone was filled with anticipation and excitement.

Everything Arthur had hoped for shattered in an instant; the pillars of his heart collapsed, and love and family ties were shrouded in deep despair.

When faced with those who mocked others' flaws, Arthur chose silence, but he cut off Randall's lifeline!
However, he forgave Gary, who was also deeply hurt, and set him free from his own prison.

As planned, Arthur disguises himself as the Joker and barges into Morrie Franklin's live broadcast stage.

Before the show started, he called himself "The Joker" and asked Murray to call him that.
